Mildura Catholic Church Dedication

On August the 3rd 1969, a dedication service was held at Mildura’s Catholic Church to celebrate the opening of an extension to the existing building constructed in the 1920’s. Apart from visiting church officials, others representing local and federal government were in attendance, alongside a large crowd of regular church goers and friends. This short piece of STV8 news footage takes us back to that important day.
